"I mean, for me, I look around at a lot of young girls that are my age and they're always trying to dress older. Whether it's wearing revealing clothes or hardly wearing any clothes at all. I feel really bad for them," said Bindi, whose father died in 2006 after a stingray pierced him in the chest.
She continued, "It kind of has the opposite effect in some ways. It kind of does the opposite where it makes you look younger and like you're trying too hard."
Bindi even said she feels like confronting these girls who don't dress their age.
"A lot of times I want to grab these girls and say, 'Look, in 10 years you'll regret this, just dress like who you are,'" she said. "Don't try so hard. A pair of jeans and a T-shirt is just as gorgeous and even makes you look classier."
